<p>So I got this housing contract and there's a box on the top left corner that asks for you residential college assignment and room number. Is it just me or have others gotten this form but still do not know their residential college assignment?</p>
<p>I think the housing department will complete that once you're assigned.</p>
<p>have people found out about their residential college assignments?</p>
<p>Not until July.</p>
<p>july 5th for emails!! im getting a facebook baby~!</p>
<p>Seriously... I'm the last of my friends to have a college facebook. Why does it take Rice so long to give them to their freshmen? Especially for a school that sends their tuition and housing bill out so fast...</p>
<p>yea people at UT, cornell, etc already got facebook. i feel like an outcast sometimes when they want to friend me and i say, sorry rice hasnt given them out. maybe rice wants us to be a bunch of transcedentalist nonconformists :)</p>
<p>erm people at rice already have facebooks. Like ME!!!!</p>
<p>You have facebook already? How?</p>
<p>Last year, a bunch of us figured out how to get facebook accounts earlier than everyone else. I forgot how exactly, but we went to apply.rice.edu and set up an account before we should have. I recommend not doing it, but I know I couldn't resist so there's the link.</p>
<p>well on that packet that u get on the mail, it tells you how to set it up but it says you have to wait until july 5th. is that a lie i guess and u can set it up earlier?</p>
<p>I don't think we got that information last year. So I am not sure, so it's your call. July 5th isn't that far away though. I think technically, we were supposed to wait until o-week.</p>
<p>they say you can start on july 5, but if you've gotten all the info you need, just go to apply.rice.edu to get an email account.</p>
<p>yea i did that but it doesnt work. if you get somebody to send u an email...u get NOTHING. its a shell.</p>
<p>I remember having that problem, but it took a few days to start getting email.</p>
<p>cause i went to try to open a facebook and then it said that a "confirmation" email was sent but i havent gotten it so i cant use my account.</p>
<p>well you have to be able to access your email. And it takes a few hours for it to be ready.</p>
<p>well it is taking quite a "few hours" (big understatement)</p>
<p>ok well thats what it took in my case. Thing are obviously different from you. If things don't work out by july 5, you could always call them.</p>
<p>serge, i had the same problem at first. but, go to webmail.rice.edu then click log in under IMP. then use the first server listed, i think its owl something. it shud be there.</p>
